Part 1 of this series: • How German Submarines ...
In the middle of 1942, the Allied navies in the Atlantic were facing a dire situation. For the last six months German U boats had unleashed a devastating wave of sinkings along the American East coast, pushing allied shipping losses in the Atlantic to record levels. But over the next twelve months, in a colossal effort, the American and Royal Navies turned the campaign around, culminating in a series of colossal convoy battles that crushed the U-boat force, secured control of the Atlantic, and paved the way for Allied victory in world war 2.
